Tomb raiding: Those who achieve immortality all have tattoos.

Looking at Chen Yan's pretty-boy appearance, Chen Jinshui said indignantly, "Fourth Grandfather, since when did it become the Chen family's place for a pretty boy to swagger around?"

pretty boy?

Chen Pi glanced at Chen Yan's face and fell silent. Was I that handsome when I was young?

Seeing that Chen Pi remained silent, Chen Jinshui turned to Chen Yan and asked, "Kid, who are you?"

Chen Yan didn't speak, but just turned his head slightly. The ninth brother behind him calmly said, "Chen Jinshui of the Chen family, thirty-two years old, male, son of the eighth apprentice of Master Chen, his biological father died early, and he is currently in the Chen family, managing the three shops of the Chen family in the city of Beijing."

"After taking over the shop for three years, we've lost over 300 million yuan."

"And you secretly replaced all the top-quality goods in the shop with defective products, Mr. Jin, and the ledgers are full of fake accounts."

"You, relying on your age, suppressed the collateral branches and profited no less than 50 million from the Chen family's dividends."

Chen Jinshui broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this, turned around and knelt down with a thud: "Fourth Grandfather, he's lying, I'm not that kind of person."

"Fourth Grandfather, I..."

Chen Pi waved his hand dismissively and said, "I don't care about these things."

Just as Chen Jinshui breathed a sigh of relief, he heard Chen Pi say, "Tell the young master that the Chen family will belong to him in the future, and the money you stole is his money."

Chen Jinshui's expression changed, and a twisted hatred flashed in his lowered eyes.

Old man, I've worked hard all these years, even if I haven't achieved anything great. And now you're pulling out some pretty boy from who-knows-where and trying to seize power?

Do you expect me to return the money I've already spent?

Dream on!

Chen Jinshui took a deep breath, but before he could speak, Chen Yan said, "Actually, this amount of money isn't a big problem."

Turning his head to look at Chen Yan, Chen Jinshui didn't understand what was going on today.

A show of force shouldn't just be a mere act of dismounting; that leaves no real threat.

Then Chen Yan said, "Your men secretly told you about my existence. You see me as a rival and are afraid that Fourth Master will come looking for me, so you want to get rid of me."

Chen Jinshui's expression changed slightly. He didn't say anything, but secretly glanced at Chen Pi.

"I don't care."

Chen Jinshui: ? ? Who taught you to talk like that?

"but."

Chen Yan looked at Chen Jinshui with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot and said, "How can you say that your father was Fourth Master's apprentice and you are his son? How come you didn't inherit any of your father's intelligence?"

"If I hadn't come back, the next head of the Chen family would have been a fool who could be easily fooled by his own men."

"Then the Chen family's reputation and honor can be torn off and trampled on at will."

Chen Jinshui instinctively shouted, "You're talking nonsense!"

After suddenly standing up, Chen Jinshui tried to grab Chen Yan's collar, but Lao Jiu stepped forward and stopped him.

The gun was pointed at Chen Jinshui's forehead: "Brother Jin, bullets don't have eyes, please step back."

Chen Yan not only didn't react at all, but also felt bored. He turned his head, picked up the tea that Chen Xi had prepared for him, and took a sip.

Chen Jinshui's anger subsided somewhat. He stepped back and glared at Lao Jiu, saying, "What did you mean by that? Who do you think you are? What gives you the right to say I was cheated by the guy?"

"Who? Tell me your name, I need to know."

"No need."

After Chen Yan finished speaking calmly, he put down his teacup, turned around and looked at Chen Jinshui: "There is no place for you in the Chen family."

Looking down at the agarwood on his wrist, he said, "Now, the Chen family is ruled by me, and I'm the one who calls the shots."

Chen Jinshui immediately turned to look at Chen Pi, and was about to speak when a commotion broke out outside the door.

Several members of the collateral branch of the family were clamoring to come in, but gunshots rang out outside the door shortly afterward.

After a moment of silence outside, someone shouted, "Fourth Grandpa! Fourth Grandpa, help me!"

Chen Jinshui turned to look at Chen Yan: "What the hell did you do?"

Chen Yan looked at Chen Jinshui and asked, puzzled, "I'm very poor and can't afford to support so many other people's employees, so I killed them. Is there a problem with that?"

"Of course, God will forgive what they've done. My job is to send them to meet God. Any problem?"

Looking at Chen Yan's calm expression, Chen Jinshui suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He took two steps forward and knelt down in front of Chen Pi: "Fourth Grandfather, Fourth Grandfather, open your eyes and look! If you don't do something, the Chen family will be finished today!"

Chen Pi closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, pretending not to hear the noise and gunshots outside, or what Chen Jinshui was saying.

Chen Jinshui got up angrily, turned around and rushed out.

Old Nine put away his gun and retreated behind Chen Yan. Chen Yan sighed, "Fourth Master, what a Chen family."

Slowly opening his eyes, Chen Pi said nonchalantly, "Anyway, if I die, the Chen family will cease to exist. Why should I care about them?"

"But now that you've chosen to come back, that's your business. I'll wait and see."

Chen Pi laughed happily, seemingly pleased to see Chen Yan's helpless expression.

Chen Yan slowly stood up: "Ninth Brother."

Old Nine immediately stepped forward and walked towards the door. Once outside the main hall, looking at the chaotic scene before him, he shouted, "Stop!"

Chen Yan's men quickly returned to Lao Jiu's side, each holding a gun and staring at the Chen family's collateral branch.

A group of people from the Chen family's collateral branch stood behind Chen Jinshui, watching the man slowly walk out of the main hall with predatory eyes.

Lao Jiu took a step back and stood behind Chen Yan, his expression serious.

Looking at the people in the courtyard, and the bloodstains and corpses at his feet, Chen Yan sighed: "Why bother? I originally wanted to send you off peacefully."

"But you are unwilling."

A man behind Chen Jinshui roared, "Bullshit! I'm sending you away, aren't you going to resist?"

Chen Yan nodded: "That makes sense, Lao Jiu. Tell the guys to be quick and efficient. If you miss even one, none of you will get dinner tonight."

"yes!"

Old Nine drew his gun and shot the man behind Chen Jinshui dead.

Before Chen Jinshui could even react, the group of people who had been able to resist just moments before suddenly couldn't hold on any longer.

Like tigers and wolves entering a pack, they swiftly slaughtered countless members of the Chen family's collateral branches and their associates.

Chen Pi came to Chen Yan's side and looked at the chaotic scene in the courtyard, saying, "You've killed so many people, you can't even tell friend from foe."

"It doesn't matter. To me, there is no 'me,' only 'enemy.'"

Chen Pi raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything.

Chen Xi, standing to the side, frowned deeply. The father and son were just like that, their personalities were hard to describe.

Soon, only Chen Jinshui remained.

The side branches that came with them to the main hall are all dead, as are the servants.

Chen Jinshui was shot twice, staggered, and knelt on one knee, looking up: "Why?"
